Yogi, I hope your shopping for your parents goes smoothly 
Good morning everyone, I think it's going to be showery here too, I hope it's less humid than yesterday. At one point it felt so uncomfortable and when I checked it was 100% humidity! I hope all goes well with the shopping Yogi and that everything that your parents need will be in stock.
Enjoy your day everyone 
I don't think it gets that high here.
Good afternoon phew! Itâs nice to be at work, having a quiet moment and being able to call in 
i must read that emoji article! I love using them

Evening all
It has been quite rainy up here.
We had a really good day with the tiddlers. We headed to the Transport Museum, now called the Riverside Museum and the kids loved going on all the old buses, trams and trains. They have an area which is a mock up of a street with shops, exactly as it would have been over a hundred years ago - I love that area and so does PB. I think my granddaughter may enjoy history as she gets older.
Then we took them onto the tall ship which is berthed on the river, next to the museum. They really enjoyed that too - BB loved ringing the shipâs bell and PB got to lie on one of the sailorâs bunks.
Moonie, PB says Iâve to tell you that she has a t-shirt which has a swan on the front
I hope youâve all had a good day
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros
Night owl hug for Summer

Good morning ð white rabbits! ðððððð
Iâm finally back to normal, yessss!!!!!!! Iâve missed everybody! ðĪ you wonât believe how much Iâve crammed in these past few days, even for me itâs OTT!
I had a lovely weekend with my friend, her puppy is just gorgeous.
As soon as she left, I went to visit a different friend in hospital. We thought he was going to die a few weeks ago, his survival has been miraculous. Now heâs out of his coma and ready for visitors, it was good to see him
I also found out that my very best friend in the world has Hodgkins Lymphoma, which was shocking to say the least 
but after a jolly good cry, Iâve bounced back and am ready to cheer her on through chemo. Weâre just waiting to find out what stage it is etc, so we know what weâre dealing with 
then, I managed to go on a date! Which was lovely, Iâm seeing him again this weekend
I've also been to work as normal, and my mum pops in daily. Sheâs settling in well, sheâs keeping herself very active and finding her way about.
Are you all keeping up? I feel like the Tasmanian devil Lol 
I've got a ton of messages to respond to, and some bookkeeping to catch up on, but I wanted to see all of you first
yogi your day out at the museum sounds fabulous! Iâm glad everyoneâs had a great time, the tiddlers are like little explorers now 
Good morning all
Weather is cloudy and rather gloomy atm.
Summer, you must be exhausted!
I hope your friend continues to make a good recovery
Hopefully, your best friendâs cancer has been caught at an early stage
We need to hear all about the date!
Iâm glad your mum is settling in well. Iâm sure she will quickly make new friends.
El, itâs great when we can combine education with fun activities.
Have a good day, everyone.
Good morning everyone, very cloudy today, no rain expected though. That sounds like a wonderful outing Yogi, I'm sure the wee ones will remember that for a long time.
Summer I'm sad to hear about your friend. My husband had Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and it was always said at the hospital that Hodgkins Lymphoma was the one they could cure. I remember we bumped into a guy there once who was having chemo for Hodgkins and he was having at it at twice the usual rate because his wife was ill - I think she had MS - and needed him, brave guy. I hope your friend recovers quickly. By the way my husband recovered from Non-Hodgkins I hope your date goes well.
Enjoy your day everyone
Swedish crown jewels stolen by thieves who escaped by speedboat:

Would Captain Thomas Blood succeeeded if they had had speedboats back in 1671?
Handel's Sarabande is one of his better known pieces of music, thanls in part to it's inclusion in the Stanley Kubrick film "Barry Lyndon". Originally for harpsischord but also for orchestra.
Here's the conventional version of it for orchestra. Main theme followed by some variations.
And here's a different version composed by the piano player Elena Fortin. The first 2 minutes are the original theme which she then follows with her own 3 short variations.
Here's the opening credit sequence for the 1976 film The Pink Panther Strikes Back. (it's followed by the closing credits as well)
It includes little references to other films and filmmakers so it's amusing to watch to see how many you get. They start at 1.20,
The first 6 are easy.
The 7th is the hardest. You can see the original scene on Youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN2SKWSOdGM
and the name of the film is mentioned in the text beneath.
The 8th is from a musical and is quite well known though I saw the film many years ago which I detested.

Was it Sweet Charity? Not keen on that musical, nor Thoroughly Modern Millie.
Goodnight and seeet dreams, Ros.

Good morning everyone
Quite cloudy here, expected to become sunnier and warmer. Nothing in the forecast that the expected heat wave in the south east will get here.
Yogi, yes it was a bit of the Hey Big Spender song from Sweet Charity.
I did quite like Thoroughly Modern Millie when I saw it over 30 years ago though it was overlong. Whether I would like it now is a different matter.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning sunny and bright here, which is lovely
i hope you all slept well
Good morning everyone, overcast here, which I think is maybe going to be the theme for the day.
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
Itâs overcast up here.
Visiting my parents today and grocery shopping afterwards.
Have a good day, all
